I only just realised that our 21.14 (140) GF score was our highest all season. A sensational case of peaking at exactly the right time.

    Wouldn’t have been many higher scores by anyone all year I wouldn’t have thought

    Our highest scores were the GF, PF, Round 20 and Round 22 shared with round 5.  We scored heavily towards the end of the season.

    I watched the Dees V Bullies first round game on the weekend and I just can't believe just how good Clarry is, he just seems unstoppable.  Weed played a fairly innocuous game but he did get his hands on the ball, he just could't hold his marks, if he had he would have had five or six goals.

    Dont get me wrong , I love watching all the replays but I need some new blood.

    Bring on our 2022 campaign!

    And I think that was our biggest gf margin win ever.

    9.10.64, Clint.  Sounds like 1964 when you say it out loud.

    I always have said that I'd be happy with just seeing one flag. But now I have seen one, I want many more.

    I was watching the replay the other day, surprise surprise and one thing that stood out was how bad the Bullies outfit was.

    Ours look sharp and modern, theirs looks drab and old fashioned, that has to be the worst blue I've ever seen.

    One thing I enjoy very much about D'land is the connection between people who got on board in the Norm Smith era, in the dark years, the Northey years, the Daniher years,  and the dark years again, leading up to now. I like that everyone got on at a different station but we're on the same train ride.

    GO DEMONS!!!

    Been there since the Norm Smith days. I have a very strong heart and constitution to have coped with some of the those years. To some degree 2018 and most certainly 2021 have just about wiped away all memories of the horror years.

    I remember there was a demonlander on here stating that he’d accepted he’d never see another flag in his lifetime. Can’t remember who he was. Really hope he’s still alive

    I think there were quite a few of us who thought that!

    Hmm, my memory isn't great, so I'm not sure whether I actually posted that!

    I reckon half of Demonland have said that at some stage.

    I posted that my dad said it to me in 1965 when the club sacked Norm Smith and he passed away in 2007 at the age of 87 also my cousin who every year since 1965 told me that this will be our year passed away in February 2021 at the age of 82.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
